India Smart City Profile

City: Solapur
State: Maharashtra

Category: Business & Industrial Centre, Tier 2

Solapur is a tier-two city in the south-east of Maharashtra, and the administrative headquarters of Solapur district. It shares a border with
Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, and has therefore attracted a large migrant population from across southern India. Solapur is recorded to have
the highest number of sugar factories in India, and also leads in ‘beedi’ production within the state. The city used to be an important centre for
cotton textile manufacturing until recently and was the first to set up a waste-to-energy electricity plant in Maharashtra. Solapur is well connected
by road to other important cities in the country and has a basic airport that mostly remains unused at present.
